Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 10. I have secure boot turned off, and legacy boot turned on. I have flashed a USB Drive and booted up the Ubuntu live environment on my HP laptop. With the partition I made for the operating system, Ubuntu is able to install. However, once the computer restarts, it does not boot to GRUB (A screen that allows the user to choose between Windows and Ubuntu), it boots directly back into windows. Furthermore, using disk management in Windows 10, I see that the partition was never formatted! I checked BIOS as well and found that Ubuntu doesn't show up in the boot order. I have tried Linux Mint and Ubuntu each with different USB drives, yet the laptop still won't boot to Linux. 

 

I thought the issue might be fast boot, but that is not an option in BIOS and the windows setting for fast boot is already turned off.

 

Also, the HP website won't let me add my laptop to the post because “an error occured” so here is the model number: 15-dy1023dx

 

Any help? I am stumped, thank you!
